This addon adds three extra gestures to NVDA. By default they are unassigned, so you will have to configure them from Input gestures dialog. Read the NVDA User Guide for more information.

When you press the toggle input lock gesture, NVDA will say "Input locked". Your input devices will be blocked until you press the same gesture again. In that moment, NVDA will say "Input unlocked" and everything will work as usual.

Locking the touchpad can prevent us from accidentally touching it, especially those who are used to using the laptop keyboard directly. When you press the toggle touchpad lock gesture, NVDA will say "Touchpad locked". Your touchpad will be blocked until you press the same gesture again. In that moment, NVDA will say "Touchpad unlocked" and everything will work as usual.

If you press the toggle mouse block gesture, your mouse will be locked. Press this command again to unlock it. While mouse is locked, you can use NVDA gestures to move it, and click with left and right buttons, but You can't move the mouse itself. Mouse clicks can also be disabled from Input lock category in NVDA settings dialog (NVDA 2018.2 and later) or from add-on settings dialog for older versions, available under preferences menu. In addition, from these settings you can control wether mouse locks when NVDA is started or not.
